Overview
My role included preparing all content to be used across all channels such as media, retailers, the website and in salons. I worked with our scientific and legal teams to ensure that our content was localised and relevant for the UK market. I also worked on projects such as organising a pop up event for a new launch and preparing send outs for influencers. As well as this, I ensured our product information was up to date, reported on launches and sent out products to clients.
Skills
Having not presented to a big group of people before, I have developed my public speaking skills and now can confidently present. Also, I have developed my organisational/time management skills as this was key to ensure that deadlines were met and to a high standard. I have learnt IT skills and how to use platform such as excel and photoshop.
Responsibilities
Yes definitely, I was responsible for approving packaging that got printed and sold, as well as localising content that would be seen across all of our channels. I was responsible to organising all elements of a pop up event we help for a new launch. Also, I frequently ensured that products were sent out to major brand clients to promote a new launch.
Support & Guidance
At the beginning I received amazing support and guidance, as there is a lot to learn and remember. Slowly, as I got the hang of things, I became more independent and needed less guidance from the team. Whenever, I needed help, my manager was always there to support me.
Culture
It was a great company to work for, there were constant social event where you could network and get to know a variety of people. There was a big coffee culture, so that you could learn about anyone from any part of the business.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed my placement thoroughly and would recommend it to anyone. Although it was hard work and there were hard times, I now have amazing experience that can be transferred to any industry. I met some amazing people that are now friends for life.
Yes
Do as much research as you can into the brand and structure of the business and try to come across as passionate as you can about L'Oréal.
